CAUTION! Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and
protective gloves!
Make sure that the suction and discharge line valves are open.

ATTENTION!Sluggingcandamagethecompressorandcausecoolanttoleak.
To prevent slugging:
The complete refrigeration system must be properly designed.
All components must be compatibly rated with each other with regard to output
(particularlytheevaporatorandexpansionvalves).
Suction gas superheat at the compressor input should be min. 7 - 10 K. (check the setting
oftheexpansionvalve).
The systemmustreachastateofequilibrium.
Particularlyincriticalsystems(e.g.severalevaporatorpoints),measuresarerecommendedsuch
asreplacementofliquidtraps,solenoidvalveintheliquidline,etc.
There should be no movement of refrigerant in the compressor while the system is at a
standstill.
6.6 Start-up
WARNING! Ensure that both shut-off valves are open before starting
the compressor!
Check that the safety and protection devices (pressure switch, motor protection, electrical
contactprotectionmeasures,etc.)areallfunctioningproperly.
Switch on the compressor and allow to run for a minimum of 10 min.
Checktheoillevelby: The oil must be visible in the sightglass.
